Ludwig van Beethoven

• Music should strike fire from the heart of man, and bring tears form the eyes of woman. Ludwig van Beethoven

• The real artist has no pride. Unfortunately he sees that his art has no limits. He feels obscurely how far he is from the goal.
  
  While he is perhaps being admired by others, he mourns the fact that he has not yet reached the point to which his better genius, like a distant sun, ever beckons to him. Ludwig van Beethoven

• An artist is someone who has learnt to trust in himself Ludwig van Beethoven
